Game Description: Prepare to have your world turned upside
down! Hydroventure: Spin Cycle stars Eddy, a Water Spirit on an
aquatic quest to save his friends who are trapped in a magic book.
Through each story-themed stage, tilt your Nintendo 3DS system to
slosh Eddy through the world; solving puzzles and defeating the
evil Goop. Eddy can transform too. As a block of ice, he can stick
to walls, while as a cloud he can summon lightning and rain.

Game Description : A tribute to the table-top RPG genre,
crucial decisions hinge on the roll of a die. You can roll dice in
real time and chain skills together to earn bonus dice of greater
and greater face value. Use your dice strategically though, or your
foes may yet get the best of you. Follow the tale of a young
"Chaser" named Giauque, as he and his team find themselves drawn
into the mystery of the Original Gift, the Crimson Shroud. A bold
new adventure awaits.

Game Description: Play three maps from the award-winning Rayman
® Legends with up to 5 players. Rayman
® Legends takes full advantage of the Wii U
GamePad’s capabilities. Use the touch screen to take out
enemies, manipulate platforms, cut ropes to clear a path and even
use the gyroscope to rotate the world. In Castle Rock, jump to the
beat of a drum, punch to the bass line, even zip-line during a
guitar sustain in a special version of “Black Betty”.
See if you have what it takes to be a Platforming Legend.

Game Description: Once upon a time in the enchanted land of
wizards and sorceresses, a battle began to brew. Hordes of dreadful

possible from your castle and smash all obstacles. This amazing
blend of match-3 and defence will have you spell-bound for
eternity.

Game Description: Metroids – the most dangerous
creatures in the galaxy – have fallen into the hands of Space
Pirates. As bounty hunter Samus Aran, battle through the depths of
planet Zebes to take out the pirates’ leader Mother Brain and
restore peace to the galaxy. The original NES classic Metroid
introduced gamers to a unique mix of action and exploration that
has become the series’ trademark. Use Samus’s Morph
Ball ability to search every nook and cranny, and uncover power-ups
like the Ice Beam, Varia Suit and Screw Attack.

Game Description: The Game Boy's exclusive chapter in the
Metroid series sees Samus Aran on a mission to rid planet SR388 of
the Metroid menace. Battle through a sprawling underworld, seeking
out every last Metroid, and build up your arsenal by discovering
mysterious artefacts. Enjoy new abilities like the Spider Ball, and
powerful new weapons like the Plasma Beam, as you eradicate the
Metroids once and for all.
